Properzia watched in amazment as her sons were all doing a, um, 'free sparring' with each other. Michelangelo and Raphael were fighting with their... nunchucks and sais while Leonardo was able to dodge a sneak attack from Donatello and almost hit if he wasn't so quick with backing up so Leonardo's...katana, as he called it, only came a small cut to Donatello's...Bo staff?
'they have strange names for their weapons.' Perzia thought as she started to giggled silently. Splinter, who was sitting next to her, noticed and chuckled.
"Is this amusing you, Properzia?" He said.
She looked at Splinter and shook her head.
"It's nothing, just thinking." Perzia said.
After a moment, she spoke again. "It looks like you did a good job in raising them to be like this."
"Thank you." Splinter said. "But I am sure that you would have done it better."
"But I was a normal turtle, and most turtle mothers would leave their babies." Perzia said frowning. "Through, I never want to leave them, I wanted to ignore that instinct. But I only had them for about a week before they were adopted."
Splinter frowned too, imagining what it would be like to lose his children and never seeing them for so many years.
"But things are ok now that I can see them again." Perzia said with a smile. "And to see them grown up into nice, healthy, and hansome young men though ninjatsu."
"Ninjutsu." Splinter corrected. He didn't notice that the turtles were overhearing their conversation and stopped training to listen to them talk.
"Oh yeah." Perzia said.
Splinter noticed that Perzia's face fell a little. He knew exactly what she was thinking.
"Do not worry for them too much, Properzia." He said. "Yes, I do worry about m-um-yo-um-our sons well-being as well, and is willing to help them with any endeavor if I can. But when I can not, all I can do is hope and pray for them."
Splinter smiled brightly as Perzia's face started to light up too.
"And, you know, I can teach you Ninjutsu as well." He said.
Perzia gasped at Splinter.
"You can?"
"Of course, if you want to. It is the least I can-"
Splinter stopped when he was caught in a hug with Perzia. He started to blush when he realized that her chest was pushed up against his.
"I would love to, Splinter. Thank you."
"U-Um, you're w-welcome?"
"Tsk, tsk, tsk."
Splinter and Perzia looked at the teenage turtles, who all had smirks on their face.
"Now master, we've known our mother for only a day and already you're putting the moves on her?" Leo asked sarcasticly with a chuckle.
Raph shook his head.
"Neve' thought ya had dose moves even in ya, Masta."
The brothers bursted out laughing. The other two seperated and stood up quickly, both of them blushing furiously.
"T-Training will finished early today." Splinter said walking to the door. "Now, if you will excuse me I need to take a shower."
When he was leaving, Splinter heard Raph say, "Yeah, a cold shower."
He was about to turn around and chew them out until he heard Raph say ow and Perzia say, "Now, that is enough. He is your master and father and I'm your mother, we will be treated with respect. Understood?"
"Yes ma'am..." The turtles said in unison.
Splinter chuckled before walking out of the door.
